SANlight sanlight EVO 140 and 60 series perpetual grow with biotabs Dutch passion ect

Here I bent all the back branches now so all the main tops have been supercropped and if you look all the front from yday are pointing back up now too
 
Are these the ladies you’re going to use the net with?
yes i was considering it but i wasn't sure when I would add the net would it be just when I flip them with the stretch

If you mesh them just before you flip them, all the protrusions should grow up, eliminating any larf. Every stem becomes a main kola, The main man @Antonio_DutchPassion is the best person to ask or @420autoflower who makes the technique an art form.

I guess really, the first time running the girl, you're gonna have to play it by ear a little bit. Good thing you got Antonio here! From watching him post, he knows his girls.
First thing get you one of them stretchy nets. You can still have it taunt and still be able to move branches into the open spots. Or a regular net tied up kind of loose. Fairly much the same effect, stretchy is easier in my mind.
You really can't go wrong on the timing of either just before or just after flip. You know you're gonna add another layer and maybe a third. It seems a lot of the time, your first layer is where you Lollipop up to.
I wish I grew tent fulls of the same strain, so I could use this method of training. It really is a lot easier than using the little branch trainers....... although I'll probably still use them early on.
Your girls look Spot on. primed to run and you got a really good start on this! This should prove quite interesting!:eyebrows:
 
@St. Tom Ah mate, I didn't realise you really wanted to SCROG them! Personally the scrog-net could/should have been introduced already.

The best way in my opinion is to take a strong metal net, something like this : https://www.hornbach.nl/p/aardmat-v...MIvOeo76GBgQMVmJ5oCR3p4wbWEAQYCCABEgLyAvD_BwE

The 5x5cm squares are essential and although @WildBill his proposed way could work too, its slightly different than what I would propose. It can definitely work too, don't get me wrong, but after scrogging hundreds/thousands of plants I think the following setup is the easiest to work with and gives great results. The thing I don't like about the stretchy, plastic nets is that they never fill the complete grow area with squares, the holes are too big and furthermore if you really want to scrog with tie-rips the plastic doesn't work that great. What you need for a great scrog is a lot of cross sections (where the edges of the square meet) and the 5x5cm are just perfect, in any grow setup. Using them as your anchor point gives a perfect division of buds onto the net, which will then grow into the perfect screen of green.

In my opinion the plastic nets should be mainly used as support nets, either when you growing freely like you are doing now, or as the top layer in a scrog (so one layer above the metal net). They are super useful to keep those precious, thick buds upright, making sure the get the heaviest they can get, which improves your yield even further.

For anyone that wants to understand what I mean, just have a quick sneak peak here : https://dutch-passion.blog/growing-cannabis-with-the-scrog-screen-of-green-method/

You see a few examples of SCROG grows, with 4 plants, but also with 2 or even 1 plant per m2. The last picture (and the 2nd before last) shows an example of a SCROG with metal net at the bottom and the plastic net on top for the support.

And cheers to @DeanOnAuto

Peace out guys :baked:
 
I think I will just use the net as support see were that takes me also I bent the same branches on the other smaller girl maybe it will kick her up a gear .also here's the big tent the back black Lebanon are gonna be huge going by there shape there on the back wall and the 2 front are macncrack from seedstockers and these are 5 days behind the smaller tent so my question is again when to flip
